Pig Teammate Dai Mubai, the Trio's Setup Collapses

She could not help but take a step forward, wanting to see more clearly.

Tang San watched Fu Qin, who was currently the center of attention, yet he did not feel very comfortable inside.

In his view, a younger brother's talent should not surpass that of the elder brother.

But soon, under the influence of the Intelligence-Lowering Aura Max+, he dismissed this thought.

[Intelligence-Lowering Aura Max+ activated, Tang San favorability +2]

[Thoughts: Although Fu Qin is a talented younger brother, he respects me, his elder brother, exceptionally well. I should not judge a gentleman's heart with a villain's measure.]

At this moment, Xiao Wu wore a look of reflected pride, unable to help but straighten her slightly aching back.

"Good! Good! Good!" Li Yusong repeated the word three times, his face flushed with excitement.

[Name: Fu Qin (Transmigrator)
Real Age: 33
Soul Power: Level 34 Soul Elder
First Martial Soul: Alchemy Gloves
Second Martial Soul: Godhood Mask
Constitution: Life Affinity Constitution (High-Tier)
Innate Buff: God-Level Luck ProMax+, Intelligence-Lowering Aura Max+, Fate Origin and Dissipation Max+
Techniques: Love Massage (Mastery), Millet Thousand-Catty Stabilization (Proficient), Fire Drawing Technique (Proficient)...
Status: Healthy (Blessed by luck, immune to all diseases)]

Fu Qin and the others followed Li Yusong toward the examination grounds.

Over the past few years, he had long since digested the memory fragments regarding Wang Zhenqiu, and those Self-Created Soul Skills originating from the Under One Person world were now second nature to him.

In particular, that move which made people both love and hate it—the impossible-to-guard-against dirty trick "Love Massage"—had already been practiced to the level of mastery.

The seemingly gentle force could precisely vibrate the glands within an opponent's body, causing their secretions to disorder, instantly making their entire body go limp, overwhelmed by extreme comfort, leaving them without even the strength to resist; it was more insidious and effective than direct destruction.

He could clearly feel Ning Rongrong's burning gaze from behind; the favorability rating on his panel had already soared to 65 points.

"Tsk, as expected of the Romance Continent, this favorability increases way too fast."

Heaven knows that when Ning Rongrong learned he had Level 34 soul power, her eyes lit up like stars. If things went as expected, she likely wanted to recruit him into the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.

Zhu Zhuqing, standing nearby, was much colder; her favorability remained stuck at 12 points. The panel showed that while she was interested in his strength, the "Already has a fiancé" tag made her deliberately keep her distance, though the occasional gaze she cast his way carried a hint of imperceptible scrutiny.

"Up ahead is the venue for the fourth examination. It should have been handled by the senior student Dai Mubai, but he doesn't know where he ran off to, so Vice Dean Zhao Wuji happens to be free and has come to oversee it himself."

Li Yusong's voice interrupted Fu Qin's train of thought as he pointed to the burly, bald man in the open space ahead.

"This is Zhao Wuji, a Soul Saint powerhouse and also our academy's Vice Dean, Martial Soul Vajra Bear."

Before Fu Qin could speak, Ning Rongrong beside him had already exclaimed in surprise.

"It's actually the Immovable Wisdom King! Sword Grandpa mentioned him to me; back when he was a Soul Emperor, he broke through the pursuit of dozens of Martial Soul Hall Soul Emperors and two Soul Saints. His fierce reputation is well-known."

Her tone was full of astonishment, and the eyes she used to look at Zhao Wuji held a hint of wariness.

Hearing this, Zhao Wuji raised his drooping eyelids, a smug smile tugging at the corners of his mouth as he patted his chest.

"The little girl has a good eye. It's good that you know my name. The fourth examination is simple: the five of you join forces and hold out against me for the time it takes to burn one stick of incense. I will only use my first three soul rings. How about it, do you dare to accept?"

His voice was like a tolling bell, making eardrums tremble. The pressure of a Soul Saint spread out, causing both Tang San and Xiao Wu to subconsciously tense their bodies.

Tang San was just about to open his mouth to discuss a strategy when he heard a dragging sound of footsteps behind him, accompanied by a painful groan.

"Ouch... my back is going to break..."

Fu Qin looked back and saw Dai Mubai walking over with two bruised panda eyes, holding his waist and limping. His face was pale and his steps were unsteady; it was clearly a situation caused by excessive indulgence last night.

Seeing him in this state, Tang San's face turned deathly pale, and cold sweat broke out on his palms.

This brainless Dai Mubai... he wouldn't say what happened last night in front of Xiao Wu, would he?

Sure enough, Dai Mubai spotted Tang San in the group immediately. A brilliant smile bloomed on his pained face, and ignoring everyone else, he rushed straight over, slapped Tang San on the shoulder, and said loudly.

"Brother Tang San! You were really fierce! Did you have a good time with those girls last night? I couldn't even straighten my back when I got up this morning; you've got some stamina, kid!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the air instantly froze.

Fu Qin could clearly feel the aura around Xiao Wu turn cold abruptly. The favorability rating she had for Tang San on the panel plummeted by 30 points, dropping from the original 45 to 15, while her disgust for Tang San soared to 60 points.

Xiao Wu's face was as cold as frost, and those originally lively eyes were now filled with chill, staring fixedly at Tang San as if she wanted to swallow him whole.

Although she had long known Tang San went out to play, she still had to pretend she knew nothing.

"Third Brother, shouldn't you give me a proper explanation?" Xiao Wu's voice carried a bone-chilling coldness.

Tang San looked flustered, his face full of embarrassment and panic, and he hurriedly stepped forward, wanting to explain.

"Xiao Wu, listen to my explanation, things aren't what you think..."

"Get lost." Xiao Wu abruptly pulled Fu Qin in front of her, shielding him from Tang San.

Fu Qin could feel Xiao Wu's hand resting on his waist acting a bit restless.

On his panel, Xiao Wu's favorability toward him rose by another 10 points, reaching 425.

Fu Qin chuckled inwardly; this Dai Mubai was truly a terrible teammate.

Although his relationship with Xiao Wu was merely for show, now that such matters had been brought into the open, Tang San's reputation was bound to collapse.

At this moment.

He cooperatively stood in front of Xiao Wu, his face displaying just the right amount of concern.

"Sister Xiao Wu, don't be angry. Perhaps there's some misunderstanding here?"

"A misunderstanding?" Xiao Wu sneered, her gaze locked firmly onto Tang San.

"He didn't return all night, and now someone is saying in public that he went to the brothel to find girls. What kind of misunderstanding could there be?"

Only then did Dai Mubai realize something was wrong. Looking at Xiao Wu's icy expression and Tang San's flustered appearance, he finally grasped that he had caused trouble.

He scratched his head and gave an awkward laugh, attempting to change the subject.

"Uh... this beautiful lady, I didn't mean it. I didn't know he was your boyfriend..."

His gaze subconsciously swept over the others present, and when he saw Zhu Zhuqing, he paused slightly.

Why did this girl look so familiar? Had he seen her somewhere before?

But having just come out of the brothel last night, his mind was filled with the images of various women, and he couldn't recall for the moment. He simply assumed he had mistaken her for someone else; after all, there were plenty of girls who looked alike.

Fu Qin noticed Zhu Zhuqing's reaction. Her body tensed instantly, her hands clenched tightly into fists, her nails nearly digging into her flesh.

On the panel, her emotional levels spiked instantly; her anger reached 85 points, her despair hit 60 points, and her favorability plummeted to freezing point.
